USE ONLY ONE SET OF KEYBOARD AND MOUSE FOR ALL YOUR SMARTDEVICES

Across makes a Bluetooth-equipped PC or Mac work as a standard Bluetooth keyboard/mouse combo. Thus, you can seamlessly and wirelessly control all your smart devices including computer, smartphone and tablet PC with the computer’s keyboard and mouse.

Multimedia keys (e.g. Volume down/up, Mute, and etc.) on your keyboard can work on a client device as well. Moreover, Across helps you easily send multimedia keys to a client device.

When Across Client works on a client device, you can copy text from one device and then paste it on other devices in the same manner as when you copy text on a device.

Notes

Although Across Client has not been installed on your client device, the keyboard or mouse hotkey allows you to control the client device using the Across Server computer’s keyboard and mouse. In this case, only the two functions (mouse-dragging and textcopy between devices) provided by Across Client are not available.

On Windows 7,8(.1),10,Vista and OSX, you can switch the Across software mode between Across Server and Across Client. On Windows XP and Android, Across Client only works.

While keyboard works well on an iOS device (iPhone/iPad), iOS does not support a mouse. Therefore, mouse operation does not work on an iPhone or iPad.

For Windows, only Microsoft Windows Bluetooth stack is supported; Other Bluetooth stacks (Broadcom WIDCOMM, CSR Harmony, Toshiba, BlueSoleil, ...) are not supported. See Q1.2 on how to check the Microsoft Windows Bluetooth stack and Q1.3 on how to switch to the Microsoft Windows Bluetooth stack in the FAQ page.
